Reviews
We just had drinks, we had a great time.
This place is amazing. The design is stylish and beautiful—and the Elvis memorabilia is fantastic! Best lounge/bar I’ve been to in ages.
And friendly service and a variety of drinks. Can’t say enough about Blue Suede.
Wow, nice place and the drinks top notch .
Cool little place, but no food. Had a 3 piece band playing that was good. Side room offers comfy chairs & couches/lounge vibe. Outdoor seating w/ fireplaces. Nice river view.
Kid-friendliness: Nope
Have stopped 3X for coffee…not open when advertised.
when are you open?
My family and I will NOT be back…1st off hours on their door said 9-12 on a Saturday. They wouldn’t open the door until 9:30. (We waited outside among with others for 10 minutes.) Sign on their door said no under 21. We had to leave because we had our 14 month old granddaughter with us. The lady behind the counter made it quite clear that we had to get our drinks to GO! Very rude (All of this and we hadn’t ordered yet!) so unfortunately we paid $24 no tip for to go two coffees and two bloody Mary’s. This is supposed to be A Fun time! Visiting our beautiful granddaughter and she gets kicked out!! No way to run a business, sadly and disappointed!!
Rude workers. Verbally expressed frustration when people came in 30 minutes before closing. Super unprofessional. However, they do have a nice outside area by the river!

I would support this place all the way, Ann really does help people,she does not profit off the poor like goodwill or salvation army Thank you Ann for what you have devoted your life too.Helping other!!!!
ASHLEY HAS BEEN A BLESSING SINCE SHE WALKED IN MY HOUSE.
I WORK 60HRS WKLY, SINGLE MOM OF 3KIDS, ASHLEY MADE MY HOME BACK TO NORMAL. VERY THANKFUL AND VERY LUCKY TO HAVE MET HER
Absolutely the best place to go for gently used merchandise. Everything is very reasonably priced. Ann’s is definitely the place you want to donate your used items to because you know the money helps the children. I could never say enough good things about Ann’s, from the staff to the merchandise AAA+
Not to happy there is no bathroom, with it being seven minutes from any gas station. And now you can only get one pair of jeans in a bag. Been going to them for years even when they were in town.. not sure why everything is changing after all theses years
4. Peacocks Tavern
Address: 114 N Main St, Port Byron, IL 61275 , Port Byron , Illinois , United States
Great place awesome staff if your in the area i highly recommend stopping!
I like a good dive bar. Old domestic beer, cheap liquor, pool, darts, minimal entertainment but for the people around you. A good hole in the wall is a pleasure unto itself. I’m not sure I have that sort of place in my repertoire for a good hang, but I’d happily do an after work session at Peacocks Tavern pending similar minded work compatriots agreeing to it.
The building facade looks old. The screen door and main door reflect this assessment. The bar itself does nothing to reject this assessment. The walls, bar and tables are covered in various wood laminate, not current or popular since likely at least the 70s or 80s. The floor is a simple 1 foot square tile of pattern seen in any cafeteria or office building of late 20th century vintage. There’s the normal assortment of canned and bottled beers and various liquors available, but best of all – the bar is ALL CASH. Haven’t seen an all cash bar in forever, and this made me happy.
All of the visual aesthetic pleases me, but what is even better is the sound of the place. There’s no music, no loud TV blaring – just people coming to meet in the space and talking. It’s a community pub if there ever was one. I only wish I’d come with people from work.
I opted for a simple Tanqueray and tonic, which was delivered quickly. It was as solid a mixed drink as any, no complaints there. The free popcorn from the machine in the corner further aided my enjoyment of my selected drink. I love free, half- stale, under salted bar popcorn. Really tied the whole experience together for me.
I’m really looking forward to stopping back here in the future, possibly with other work compatriots if possible. I’m not always in the mood for this sort of space, but the overall experience of stopping in to a space like this and being able to make your own fun, whether it’s darts, pool, or just hanging out, is a certain fun I’m and of itself. I’ll see you again soon, Peacocks!
Traditional downtown bar facing Mississippi river
Local hole in the wall bar.
Nice quiet bar
Smells of urine
Rude bartender, don’t recommend!
5. Sound Conservatory
Address: 1600 2nd Ave, Rock Island, IL 61201 , Port Byron , Illinois , United States
Nice selection of instruments at really good prices!
Excellent teachers, great place for recitals. The owner is very friendly and helpful!
So, I was window-shopping for what I thought was an impossible request (arch top that I would be satisfied with on a very lean budget), and within a matter of days Andrzej messaged me some photos of a new acquisition that was exactly what I was looking for! They set it up all nice for me, helped me pick out a few things I’d need to go with it (my first electric), and even let me try it out in the shop before I committed myself. Great store- definitely my go-to now!

Great venue downtown LeClaire with live music. Go visit Doc and Tommy playing guitar. And can’t forget about Rhonda behind the bar!
The place is fun Fun FUN!!!
LIVE MUSIC on the weekend!
(May be a bit partial because I do work there!)
The staff are terrific. If you are looking for a place where they have fun, this is it. It’s small inside, especially compared to their outdoor, which I like better. Jordan Danielson was there tonight. He’s got a good voice. Also has a good time and has fun.

HOLY PERFECTION! Honestly better than I expected! I was worries when I learned new owners took over, but i could not have asked for a better venue for my wedding! Everything was amazing! From the table sets, the bridal suite, to the staff and the owners i could not have asked for a better day! Everything was beautiful, the staff was great, and the food was amazing! When I say I felt like a princess all day, I mean it. They thought of everything. I packed an emergency kit but they had things I didnt even think about but ended up needing. They were more than flexable during, before, and after. 100% 10 out of 10 will be recommending.
An amazing place to host an event!!!
Best venue I’ve been to. Very clean. Hospitable. Had a lot of fun here!
Good food, clean, country setting
It was beautiful there for my sister’s wedding. The staff was really nice and the food was good. We had a great time.
Very clean and spacious bartender was super nice
10. Mississippi Cottage Antiques
Address: 606 N Cody Rd, Le Claire, IA 52753 , Port Byron , Illinois , United States
Love, love, love this shop and the wonderful woman that takes care of the shop.
Like to go again
Lots to look at. Some beautiful antiques.
If you’re looking for more high-value, investment-level antiques, this shop is for you. Many of their items are in top-quality condition and in good working order. I personally enjoyed looking at their selection of lighting rods with balls. There were over ten of these, some of which had custom-made bases, which makes displaying them much easier.
Lot’s of cool stuff
Very disappointing!

Address: 701 N Cody Rd, Le Claire, IA 52753 , Port Byron , Illinois , United States
Fast and friendly service. Good prices and relaxed atmosphere.
The new patio and updated paint was a much needed improvement. Good local bar with some good flame broiled burgers and grilled tenderloins. The steak quesadilla is delicious.
Great food, great service
Great food and views
Nice lil place by the river. Food was pretty good, service wasn’t very attentive despite the fact there wasn’t a lot of people, but overall had a good time and will be back. Would like to give this place another shot when it’s warm enough to use the patio.
Food was not bad, but kinda a hole in the wall place. Seems popular with the locals. Not upscale at all. Good river views in the back area.
You know you’re going to have an outdoor event, you should plan accordingly.
Food was mediocre, service was the worst I’ve ever seen. Will NOT be returning.
More like river view bar and MICROWAVE!! All they had was frozen pizza and a guy who sleeps with chickens
Waitress didn’t serve us, took several others ahead of us. Waitress was rude and didn’t want to be there or cook food. Skip this place go-to big Dave and Holly’s or blue iguana
13. Daddio’s Spirits
Address: 711 N High St, Port Byron, IL 61275 , Port Byron , Illinois , United States
Exactly what you want in a liqour store. Local beers and wine that are hard to come by while also having all matter of everyday booze to suit your mood.
Great selection & prices
Love the local small town vibe. Always happy to stop in! Very kind people working there.
Full liquor store.
Good service. Sales person not wearing a mask was very disappointing.
Small but friendly
Closed at 6 on New Year’s Eve
They were great but have been really slacking on inventory and the one worker is very creepy.
